The image below is the results from the Steam VR test, whilst nice to know I didn’t like the amount of noise I got from my card as it was maxxed out at 99% usage. The coil whine and fans made it sound like a card in pain.

Now VR is an interesting one, you will more than likely have headphones on, so this would be negated to a large degree. I do feel like we are far from crushing VR to the point that it is always smooth. The Steam test is on a Source Engine test and whilst still nice that is an engine I first saw on my AGP ATi 9600 back in the earilish 2000s. It really gives me pause.

My mate Jeremy in one of his recent shows explained that he doesn’t even use wallpaper. I can’t imagine not tinkering with computers. Just to show how much I play about here is a cut of my desktop. I usually have a different workflow, but I moved everything around so you can see it all in one go.

Here are some photos of my new GTX 970, it replaces my old 7970. The GTX 970 is smaller in length, just, but taller. The fans are substantially larger. This is a good thing. The larger the fan, the slower they have to turn for the same airflow. The heat sink can be larger too.

My fav plugins for Windows at the moment are: Favicon Downloader and KPEnhancedEntryView. The former allows me to download fav icons and make my keepass easier to navigate. The later just makes it easier to make quick edits.

My preferred Android client is Keepass2Android, mainly because of the keyboard integration.
